Re: New 3D printer

With low cost laser cutters around the $500 level and at $100 for some models, someone can take the same idea and make a blade-less version of this 3d printer that should much cost less than the $6,000 of this more mechanical cutting 3d paper printer.

The future is certainly going to be interesting.

Friends,

Today the BBC has a feature on a new printer that uses layered paper to
make 3D models. At around $6,000 this is a bit steep, but the price is
bound to drop if the technology catches on. This might have great
possibilities for model railroads, especially buildings, as the photo
examples show.
